DE-ESSER
This is a compressor specialized for high frequencies. Use it to
reduce vocal “s” sounds and other harsh high-frequency noises.
FREQUENCY knob
Sets the lowest frequency that causes the de-esser to
function.
Range: 1 kHz–4 kHz (default: 1.15 kHz)
DEPTH knob
Sets the amount of compression.
The higher the value the greater the compression (and
de-essing effect).
Range: 1–100 (default: 25)
8
EXCITER
This effect emphasizes high-frequency harmonics to add clarity
and sparkle while maintaining the original sound.
FREQUENCY knob
Sets the frequency above which harmonics are empha-
sized.
Range: 1 kHz–4 kHz (default: 2.00 kHz)
DEPTH knob
Sets the amount that harmonics are emphasized.
The higher the value, the more they are emphasized.
Range: 1–100 (default: 75)
8
EQUALIZER (3-band parametric EQ)
Use this to increase or decrease the levels of specific frequency
ranges. This can be used, for example, to enhance the sound
of individual instruments, to adjust the balance of a wide
frequency range and to cut specific unwanted frequencies.
The frequency response at the current settings is shown as a
graph even when the equalizer is off.
The equalizer has a high-shelf HIGH band, a low-shelf LOW band
and a peaking (bell-shaped) MID band.
LOW GAIN knob
Sets the amount the level is increased or decreased for
the LOW band.
Range: ±12 dB (default: 0 dB)
LOW FREQ knob
Sets the cutoff frequency of the LOW band.
Range: 32 Hz–1.6 kHz (default: 100 Hz)
MID GAIN knob
Sets the amount the level is increased or decreased for
the MID band.
Range: ±12 dB (default: 0 dB)
MID FREQ knob
Sets the cutoff frequency of the MID band.
Range: 32 Hz–18 kHz (default: 1.0 kHz)
MID Q knob
Sets the acuteness of the peak of the MID BAND.
The higher the value the more acute it becomes, making
it affect a narrower frequency band.
The lower the value, the less acute it becomes, making it
affect a broader frequency band.
Range: 0.25–16 (default: 0.5)
HIGH GAIN knob
Sets the amount the level is increased or decreased for
the HIGH band.
Range: ±12 dB (default: 0 dB)
HIGH FREQ knob
Sets the cutoff frequency of the HIGH band.
Range: 1.7 kHz–18 kHz (default: 10 kHz)
